You guys hear that rude asshole Ed Shultz today?
He slammed a caller that was taking him to task for the way he's been riding Dean. I am too through with that blowhard. Please email Shultz at www.wegoted.com and tell him to stop doing the Republicans work for them and to get the hell off of Dean. While you're at it fire one off to all the other Dems from the Republican wing of the Democratic party who are criticizing Dean (Biden, Edwards, Richardson...).

This thing should have been over by now. This is stupid to tear down our leader like this.

3. He was after Dean for saying what he said instead of defining the
issues.... Fuck him I say. Does anyone listen when Dems try to present the issues, NO! They just come up with another missing asshole story.

4. im often not too fond of him either
his style is uncomfortably similar to rush. he often doesnt listen to guests or callers. he often doesnt have the facts or seem to have ever heard them.

and he loves those so called 'moderate' democrats. we call them dinos. he doesnt seem to have a lot of affinity for real liberals.

5. Pissed me off too
He did make one good point. It's one thing to get press--which Dean is definitely doing--but it's another thing to come up with viable alternatives to the Neocon talking points.

I like what Dean is doing, but they need to follow it up with real options--get the people talking about OUR goals.

From Republicans are "Rich, White, Christian assholes" to "we want to make sure you--yeah, you there, downsized out of a job, get the healthcare you need. We want to make sure the new Bankruptcy bill doesn't destroy everything you worked for all your life because you get sick or injured. We want you to be able to send your kids to college. The Republicans don't CARE if you can send your kids to college. WE do.
We want you to have clean water and clean air. The Republicans want you to be breathing black filth from the neighborhood factories where they'd make you work 20 hours a day with no overtime if they had their way.

If they can't work YOU to death, they'll be happy to farm it out to the third world and work THEM to death. And leave you jobless, homeless, and dying of some disease they could have prevented but don't care enough to bother with."

Keep pounding the point home until the Neocons' ears are bleeding. Make Rush choke on his oxycontin. Make O'Reilly bite his own tongue off trying to come up with a good response to that.

8. Not anymore - look at this:
Edited on Wed Jun-08-05 06:32 PM by Pirate Smile
"The Ed Schultz progressive talk show's been sold to P1 - a new group led by Randy Michaels and Stu Krane.

Democracy Radio - which calls itself an incubator for progressive programming at both the national and local levels - announced the sale today. P1 stands for "Product 1st", and the 18-month-old daily "Big Eddie" show is its first acquisition. Jones Radio Networks will continue to rep the show for ad sales."

edit to add:

The show has been 'bought' by the former Clear Channel leader!

This CLOWN ran Clear Channel. He's a BUSH Boy!!!
